A couple years ago, I discovered that we had several blackberry bushes in our front yard on both sides of our driveway by the tree line. Isabella loves to pick berries with me and asks all the time if we can go. She loves to eat them as much as she loves watching me pick them. I usually get a small container full, and by the time we walk back to the house, most of them are gone. She eats them by the handful since she hasn't learned the art of savoring. I am hoping that this will become a activity that she and I will enjoy for many years. I will always have fond memories of my little girl following close behind me with purple fingers and teeth stained from the berries and asking for more before the last one hits her mouth.
